Twelve people have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting spree at a Texas military base by what officials believe was possibly carried out by an Army officer.

The suspected gunman was identified by ABC News as Major Malik Nadal Hasan.

The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, have been apprehended, Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone said.

The gunman used two handguns, Cone said. He wasn't sure if the shooter reloaded the weapons during the attack.

Fumbling Bumbling Idiots just announced that this is NOT a terrorist incident.

Is Baghdad Bob running that organization, or what?

They are not even on the ground yet, and have stated it's not terrorism related?

"If the shooters are muslims, the FBI will hold off release of the names. That should tell us volumes."

Think about how quickly the description and the name of the Washington DC Jewish Center shooter came out. It seemed like it was well less than an hour after that his description came out, then less than two hours before his actual name was released.

“KCEN reporting they are hearing that shots have been fired at a soldier’s residence.”

Over a half hour ago one of the TV news stations said that officials were asking all residences on base to turn off their heating or air conditioning units.

Any idea why? The only thing I can think of would be to cut down on noise when searching the areas???

Wouldn't a competent investigator suspect everything, including terrorism, up until the time that they've conclusively ruled it out? Federal law enforcement officials shouldn't be engaging in political spin to protect a President.

It's more likely the MSM is saying this, not the MPs. Or Feds.

I disagree. The plastic AK-47 on the bottom row is clearly a sniper rifle.

They have one of the guys. They know who he is and it is probably pretty easy to figure out who the rest of them are.

A little too soon to call coverup.

Perhaps because it is not a terrorist incident.

“NO TERRORISM SUSPECTED”

I don't suspect the pOser in the WH is looking for another opportunity to practice saluting.
